Dance - Reconsideration



Reconsideration (Omprövning) investigates the refined and skilled body of the ballet dancer as shaped by the traditional technique of ballet.

In 2011 Anna Koch initiated the first stage of the choreography project as work in progress. Now in 2012 its second stage the project will be presented as a solo dance performed by Anna-Mi Fredriksson who returns to Stockholm after an extensive period as a member of the ensemble of The English National Ballet. This will inaugurate her premiere on a Swedish stage. Later 2012 the project will develop further to a groupwork with four dancers.

Idea/Choreography: Anna Koch. Dance/Photo: Anna-Mi Fredriksson. Light: SUTODA

During spring 2011, I worked with designer Naim Josefi and art director Maja Bergström from Beckmans College of Design in Stockholm. Together we created a film where physical movement becomes visual shapes. Fashion, imagery and human physicality converge into one united expression.

Dancer: Mia Hjelte
Graphic Design: Kristoffer Tellström, Christoffer McKie
Marketing Communication: Christine Anasthase, Lars Lundberg

In the concept for Granfors, the choreographic idea was inspired post-modernist architecture. Granfors works with deconstruction in his design concept and we wanted to create a  physical deconstruction of how the garments enter new shapes through movement.
